GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The AD7760 is a high performance, 24-bit Σ-Δ analog-to-digital converter (ADC). It combines wide input bandwidth and high speed with the benefits of Σ-Δ conversion to achieve a perfor-mance of 100 dB SNR at 2.5 MSPS, making it ideal for high speed data acquisition. Wide dynamic range combined with significantly reduced antialiasing requirements simplify the design process. An integrated buffer to drive the reference, a differential amplifier for signal buffering and level shifting, an overrange flag, internal gain and offset registers, and a low-pass digital FIR filter make the AD7760 a compact, highly integrated data acquisition device requiring minimal peripheral component selection. In addition, the device offers programmable decimation rates, and the digital FIR filter can be adjusted if the default characteristics are not appropriate for the application. The AD7760 is ideal for applications demanding high SNR without a complex front-end signal processing design.
The differential input is sampled at up to 40 MSPS by an analog modulator. The modulator output is processed by a series of low-pass filters, with the final filter having default or user-programmable
coefficients. The sample rate, filter corner frequencies, and output word rate are set by a combination of the external clock frequency and the configuration registers of the AD7760.
The reference voltage supplied to the AD7760 determines the analog input range. With a 4 V reference, the analog input range is ±3.2 V differential biased around a common mode of 2 V. This common-mode biasing can be achieved using the on-chip differential amplifier, further reducing the external signal conditioning requirements.
The AD7760 is available in an exposed paddle, 64-lead TQFP and is specified over the industrial temperature range from −40°C to +85°C.

TERMINOLOGY Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
SNR is the ratio of the rms value of the actual input signal to the rms sum of all other spectral components below the Nyquist frequency, excluding harmonics and dc. The value for SNR is expressed in decibels.
Total Harmonic Distortion (THD)
THD is the ratio of the rms sum of harmonics to the fundamental. For the AD7760, it is defined as
1
65432
V
VVVVVTHD
22222
log20dB
where: V1 is the rms amplitude of the fundamental. V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6 are the rms amplitudes of the second to the sixth harmonics.
Nonharmonic Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR)
SFDR is the ratio of the rms signal amplitude to the rms value of the peak spurious spectral component, excluding harmonics.
Dynamic Range
Dynamic range is the ratio of the rms value of the full scale to the rms noise measured with the inputs shorted together. The value for the dynamic range is expressed in decibels.
Intermodulation Distortion
With inputs consisting of sine waves at two frequencies, fa and fb, any active device with nonlinearities creates distortion products at sum and difference frequencies of mfa ± nfb, where m, n = 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on. Intermodulation distortion terms are those for which neither m nor n are equal to 0. For example, the second-order terms include (fa + fb) and (fa − fb), and the third-order terms include (2fa + fb), (2fa − fb), (fa + 2fb), and (fa − 2fb).
The AD7760 is tested using the CCIF standard, where two input frequencies near the top end of the input bandwidth are used.
In this case, the second-order terms are usually distanced in frequency from the original sine waves, and the third-order terms are usually at a frequency close to the input frequencies. As a result, the second- and third-order terms are specified separately. The calculation of the intermodulation distortion is as per the THD specification, where it is the ratio of the rms sum of the individual distortion products to the rms amplitude of the sum of the fundamentals expressed in decibels.
Integral Nonlinearity (INL)
INL is the maximum deviation from a straight line passing through the endpoints of the ADC transfer function.
Differential Nonlinearity (DNL)
DNL is the difference between the measured and the ideal 1 LSB change between any two adjacent codes in the ADC.
Zero Error
Zero error is the difference between the ideal midscale input voltage (when both inputs are shorted together) and the actual voltage producing the midscale output code.
Zero Error Drift
Zero error drift is the change in the actual zero error value due to a temperature change of 1°C. It is expressed as a percentage of full scale at room temperature.
Gain Error
The first transition (from 100 … 000 to 100 … 001) should occur for an analog voltage ½ LSB above the nominal negative full scale. The last transition (from 011 … 110 to 011 … 111) should occur for an analog voltage 1½ LSB below the nominal full scale. The gain error is the deviation of the difference between the actual level of the last transition and the actual level of the first transition, from the difference between the ideal levels.
Gain Error Drift
Gain error drift is the change in the actual gain error value due to a temperature change of 1°C. It is expressed as a percentage of full scale at room temperature.

AD7760
Rev. A | Page 18 of 36
THEORY OF OPERATION The AD7760 employs a Σ-Δ conversion technique to convert the analog input into an equivalent digital word. The modulator samples the input waveform and outputs an equivalent digital word to the digital filter at a rate equal to ICLK.
By employing oversampling, the quantization noise is spread across a wide bandwidth from 0 to fICLK. This means that the noise energy contained in the signal band of interest is reduced (see Figure 40a). To further reduce the quantization noise in the signal band of interest, a high order modulator is employed to shape the noise spectrum so that most of the noise energy is shifted out of the signal band (see Figure 40b).
The digital filtering that follows the modulator removes the large out-of-band quantization noise (see Figure 40c) while also reducing the data rate from fICLK at the input of the filter to fICLK/8 or less at the output of the filter, depending on the decimation rate used.
Digital filtering has certain advantages over analog filtering: It does not introduce significant noise or distortion and can be made perfectly linear in terms of phase.
The AD7760 employs three FIR filters in series. By using different combinations of decimation ratios, filter selection, and bypassing, data can be obtained from the AD7760 at a large range of data rates. Multibit data from the modulator can be obtained at the ICLK rate (see Modulator Data Output Mode section). The first filter receives the data from the modulator at a maximum frequency of 20 MHz and decimates it by 4 to output the data at 5 MHz. The partially filtered data can be output at this stage. The second filter allows the decimation rate to be chosen from 2× to 32× or to be completely bypassed.
The third filter has a fixed decimation rate of 2×, is user programmable, and has a default configuration. It is described in detail in the Programmable FIR Filter section. This filter can also be bypassed.
Table 6 shows some characteristics of the default filter. The group delay of the filter is defined to be the delay to the center of the impulse response and is equal to the computation plus the filter delays. The delay until valid data is available (the DVALID status bit is set) is equal to twice the filter delay plus the computation delay.

MODULATOR DATA OUTPUT MODE Operating the AD7760 in modulator output mode enables the output of data directly from the Σ-Δ modulator. This mode of operation bypasses the AD7760 on-board digital filtering capabilities, outputting data in its unfiltered form.
As discussed in the Theory of Operation section, the AD7760 operates using oversampling, which spreads quantization noise over a wide bandwidth. The decrease in the quantization noise energy in the resulting signal band is illustrated in Figure 40a. By coupling the use of oversampling with the use of a high order, multibit Σ-Δ modulator, the AD7760 further reduces the quantization noise in the signal band. Figure 41 is an FFT of unfiltered data output from the AD7760 when it is used in modulator output mode. This clearly demonstrates the shaping of the quantization noise performed by the AD7760’s Σ-Δ modulator.
MODULATOR INPUTS
The maximum voltage input to each differential modulator input pin is 0.8 × 4.096 V ≈ 3.275 V (80% of VREF), which must sit on a common mode of VREF/2. This maximum differential input voltage is shown as the conditioned output of the AD7760’s on-board differential amplifier in Figure 52 in the Driving the AD7760 section.
Further details on the signal conditioning implemented by the AD7760’s on-board differential amplifier and the recommended external circuitry that accompanies it is described in the Driving the AD7760 section.

Figure 42. Modulator Output Data Scaling
As the nature of the modulator output is coarse relative to the fully filtered output of the AD7760 (due to the associated quantization noise of the modulator output), Bits D[3:0] of the modulator output are zero when operating in modulator data output mode. Thus, the data outputs for the calculations listed in Example 1 and Example 2 for inputs to the modulator pins VIN+ and VIN− show Bits D[3:0] of the modulator output as zero.
Example 1 VIN+ = 3.5 V VIN− = 0.595 V Modulator Output Code = ([VIN(+) − VIN(−)]/4.096 V) × 16384 = [(3.5 V − 0.595 V)/4.096 V] × 16384 = +11620 Direct Scaling: [0010 1101 0110 0100] Value Output on Data Output Pins D[15:0]: D [15:0] = [0010 1101 0110 0000].

MODULATOR DATA OUTPUT MODE INTERFACE The AD7760 can be configured in modulator data output mode (bypassing the default decimation filtering) by writing 0 to each of the bits contained in Control Register 1: BYP F1, BYP F3, and DEC [2:0]. This will bypass all digital decimation filtering offered by the AD7760. See the AD7760 Registers section for further details.
When the AD7760 is operating in modulator data output mode, a different parallel interfacing scheme than that used for config-urations, where the AD7760’s data output is filtered is necessary.
The data output rate depends on the clock divider ratio that is used. When the CDIV bit in Control Register 2 is set to logic high, data is output at the MCLK frequency. If the CDIV bit is set to logic low, data is output at a frequency of MCLK/2. See the Clocking the AD7760 section.
CLOCK DIVIDE-BY-1 MODE (CDIV = 1)
When obtaining data from the AD7760 in modulator output mode, both the RD/WR and CS lines must be held low. This brings the data bus out of its high impedance state. Figure 43 shows the timing diagram for reading data in the modulator data
output mode when operating with CDIV = 1 (that is, ICLK = MCLK). A DRDY pulse is generated for each word. The data on each of the 16 data output pins, D [15:0], is valid on the rising edge of the DRDY pulse. The DRDY pulse can be used to latch the modulator data into a FIFO or as a DMA control signal. Shortly after the RD/WR and CS lines return high, the AD7760 stops outputting data and the data bus returns to high impedance.
CLOCK DIVIDE-BY-2 MODE (CDIV = 0)
When operating in modulator output mode with CDIV = 0 (that is, ICLK = MCLK/2), the frequency of the DRDY signal created is half that of the MCLK frequency input to the device. The timing scheme that is used when CDIV = 0 depends on the number of MCLK cycles that occur between RESET and SYNC. If the number of MCLK cycles (n) between the rising edge of RESET and the rising edge of SYNC (see Figure 44) is an even value, use the interface timing shown in Figure 43. If n is an odd value, use the interface timing shown in Figure 45.

Figure 45. AD7760 Modulator Output Mode (CDIV = 0, n is odd)
In the case where n is an odd number of MCLK cycles, the modulator data output on Pins D [15:0] is output on the rising edge of DRDY. In this case, the modulator data should be read on the falling edge of MCLK when DRDY is logic low. Figure 45 shows timing details to be used when reading the modulator output data where CDIV = 0 and there is an odd number of MCLK cycles between the rising edge of RESET and the rising edge of SYNC. The edge of MCLK that should be used under these conditions is illustrated in Figure 45 by arrows on the MCLK falling edges in question.
USING THE AD7760 IN MODULATOR OUTPUT MODE
The following is the recommended sequence for powering up and using the AD7760:
1. Apply power.
2. Start the clock oscillator, applying MCLK.
3. Take RESET low for a minimum of one MCLK cycle.
4. Wait a minimum of two MCLK cycles after the rising edge of RESET.
5. Write to Control Register 2 to power up the ADC and the differential amplifier as required. The correct clock divider (CDIV) ratio should be programmed at this time.
6. Write to Control Register 1 to set the bypass filter bits, BYP F1 and BYP F3, and the decimation rate bits, DEC [2:0], to 0.
7. Wait a minimum of six MCLK cycles after the rising edge of CS has been released.
8. Take SYNC low for a minimum of four MCLK cycles, if required, to synchronize multiple parts.
Using this sequence results in an even number of MCLK cycles between the rising edge of RESET and the rising edge of SYNC. Therefore, when using this sequence with CDIV = 0, the interface timing shown in Figure 43 should be implemented.
Note that whether the number of MCLK cycles between the rising edge of RESET and SYNC is odd or even is irrelevant when the AD7760 is operated with CDIV = 1.
When using the AD7760 in modulator output mode, the offset, gain, and overrange registers are not operational. The only registers that can be used are Control Register 1 and Control Register 2.
AD7760

AD7760 INTERFACE READING DATA
When the AD7760 is outputting data at a 5 MHz output data rate or less, the interface operates in a conventional mode, as shown in Figure 2, using a 16-bit bidirectional parallel interface. This interface is controlled by the RD/WR and CS pins. The 24-bit conversion data is output in twos complement format. When a new conversion result is available, an active low pulse is output on the DRDY pin.
To read a conversion result from the AD7760, two 16-bit read operations are performed. The DRDY pulse indicates that a new conversion result is available. Both RD/WR and CS go low to perform the first read operation. Shortly after both lines go low, the data bus becomes active and the 16 most significant bits (MSBs) of the conversion result are output. The RD/WR and CS lines must return high for a full ICLK period before the second read is performed. This second read contains the eight least significant bits (LSBs) of the conversion result along with six status bits. These status bits are shown in Table 7. Descriptions of the other status bits are found in Table 17.
Table 7. Status Bits During Data Read
MSB LSB
D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0
DVALID OVR UFILT LPWR FILTOK DLOK 0 0
Shortly after RD/WR and CS return high, the data bus returns to a high impedance state. Both read operations must be completed before a new conversion result is available because the new result overwrites the contents of the output register. If a DRDY pulse occurs during a read operation, the data read is invalid.
READING STATUS AND OTHER REGISTERS
The AD7760 features a number of programmable registers. To read back the contents of these registers or the status register, the user must first write to the control register of the device, setting a bit that corresponds to the register to be read. The next read operation outputs the contents of the selected register instead of a conversion result. The AD7760 Registers section provides more information on the relevant bits in the control register.
SHARING THE PARALLEL BUS
By its nature, the high accuracy of the AD7760 makes it sensitive to external noise sources. These include digital activity on the parallel bus. For this reason, it is recommended that the AD7760 data lines be isolated from the system data bus by means of a latch or buffer to ensure all digital activity on the D0 to D15 pins is controlled by the AD7760.
If multiple synchronized AD7760 parts that share a properly distributed common MCLK signal exist in a system, these parts can share a common bus without being isolated from each other. This bus can then be isolated from the system bus by a single latch or buffer.
SYNCHRONIZATION
The SYNC input to the AD7760 provides a synchronization function that allows the user to begin gathering samples of the analog front-end input from a known point in time.
The SYNC function allows multiple AD7760s, operated from the same MCLK, RESET, and SYNC signals, to be synchronized so that each ADC simultaneously updates its output register. The distribution of the signals that are common to each of the devices that are to be synchronized is extremely important in ensuring that the timing of each of the AD7760 devices is correct, that is, that each AD7760 device sees the same digital edges synchronously.
The SYNC signal is sensed on the falling edge of MCLK. On the first falling edge of MCLK after SYNC goes logic low, the digital filter sequencer is reset to 0. The filter is held in a reset state until a falling edge of the MCLK senses SYNC logic high. The SYNC signal must remain logic low for a minimum of four MCLK cycles. Figure 46 shows the recommended timing for the SYNC signal with respect to MCLK.

SYNC 4 × tMCLK
MIN SYNC LOGIC LOW
04975-053
Figure 46. Recommended SYNC Timing
The rising edge of SYNC should be coincident with the rising edge of MCLK. Thus, the next falling edge of MCLK senses SYNC logic high and takes the filter out of its reset state. By applying this signal scheme to multiple ADCs using the same MCLK and SYNC signals, all of the devices will gather input samples synchronously.
Following a SYNC signal, the digital filter needs time to settle before valid data can be read from the AD7760. The DVALID status bit (D7 in Table 7) output with each conversion indicates when valid data is being output by the converter. The time from the rising edge of SYNC until the DVALID bit is asserted is dependent on the filter configuration used. See the Theory of Operation section and the values listed in Table 6 for details on calculating the time until DVALID is asserted.

WRITING TO THE AD7760
There are many features and parameters that the user can change by writing to the AD7760 device. See the Using the AD7760 section, which details the writing sequence needed to initialize the operation of the part.
The AD7760 has programmable registers that are 16 bits wide. This means that two write operations are required to program a register. The first write contains the register address, and the second write contains the register data. An exception is when a user-defined filter is being downloaded to the AD7760. This is described in detail in the Downloading a User-Defined Filter section. The AD7760 Registers section contains the register addresses and details.
Figure 3 shows a write operation to the AD7760. The RD/WR line is held high while the CS line is brought low for a minimum of four ICLK periods. The register address is latched during this period. The CS line is brought high again for a minimum of four ICLK periods before the register data is put onto the data bus. If a read operation occurs between the writing of the register address and the register data, the register address is cleared and the next write must be the register address. This also provides a method to revert back to a known situation if the user forgets whether the next write is an address or data.
Generally, the AD7760 is written to and configured on power-up and very infrequently, if at all, after that. Following any write operation, the full group delay of the filter must elapse before valid data is output from the AD7760.

CLOCKING THE AD7760 The AD7760 requires an external low jitter clock source. This signal is applied to the MCLK pin, and the MCLKGND pin is used to sense the ground from the clock source. An internal clock signal (ICLK) is derived from the MCLK input signal. The ICLK controls all internal operations of the AD7760. The maximum ICLK frequency is 20 MHz, but due to an internal clock divider, a range of MCLK frequencies can be used. There are two ways to generate the ICLK:
ICLK = MCLK (CDIV = 1)
ICLK = MCLK/2 (CDIV = 0)
These options are selected from the control register (see the AD7760 Registers section for more details). On power-up, the default is ICLK = MCLK/2 to ensure that the part can handle the maximum MCLK frequency of 40 MHz. For output data rates equal to those used in audio systems, a 12.288 MHz ICLK frequency can be used. As shown in Table 6, output data rates of 192 kHz, 96 kHz, and 48 kHz are achievable with this ICLK frequency. As mentioned previously, this ICLK frequency can be derived from different MCLK frequencies.
It is recommended that the MCLK signal applied to the AD7760 has a 50-50 mark-space ratio. When operating in clock divide-by-1 mode (that is, CDIV = 1), using higher mark-space ratios reduces the maximum MCLK frequency that can be applied to the AD7760 yielding maximum performance. For example, using a mark-space ratio of 60-40 (with CDIV = 1) reduces the maximum MCLK frequency that will yield the maximum INL and THD performance to 16 MHz.
BUFFERING THE MCLK SIGNAL
The MCLK signal for the AD7760 must be buffered before being input to the MCLK pin on the AD7760 device. This can be done simply by routing the MCLK signal to both inputs of an AND gate (see Figure 47).
The recommended buffer is the NC7SZ08M5, which is a two-input AND gate from Fairchild Semiconductor. Using the buffer with a supply voltage of 5 V is advised to achieve optimum performance from the AD7760.

where: OSR = oversampling ratio = fICLK/ODR. fIN = maximum input frequency. SNR(dB) = target SNR.

The input amplitude also has an effect on these jitter figures. For example, if the input level was 3 dB below full-scale, the allowable jitter would be increased by a factor of √2, increasing the first example to 2.53 ps rms. This happens when the maximum slew rate is decreased by a reduction in amplitude. Figure 48 and Figure 49 illustrate this point, showing the maximum slew rate of a sine wave of the same frequency but with different amplitudes.

DRIVING THE AD7760 The AD7760 has an on-chip differential amplifier that operates with a supply voltage (AVDD3) within the 3.15 V to 5.25 V range. For a 4.096 V reference, the supply voltage must be 5 V.
To achieve the specified performance in normal mode, the differential amplifier should be configured as a first-order antialias filter, as shown in Figure 50. Any additional filtering should be carried out in previous stages using low noise, high performance op amps, such as the AD8021.
Suitable component values for the first-order filter are listed in Table 8. Using the values in the table as an example yields a 10 dB attenuation at the first alias point of 19 MHz.

Figure 52 shows the signal conditioning that occurs using the circuit shown in Figure 50 with a ±2.5 V input signal biased around ground and the component values and conditions listed in Table 8. The differential amplifier always biases the output
signal to sit on the optimum common mode of VREF/2, in this case 2.048 V. The signal is also scaled to give the maximum allowable voltage swing with this reference value. This is calculated as 80% of VREF, that is, 0.8 × 4.096 V ≈ 3.275 V p-p on each input.
With a 4.096 V reference, a 5 V supply must be provided to the reference buffer (AVDD4). With a 2.5 V reference, a 3.3 V supply must be provided to AVDD4.
Figure 51 shows the transfer function in terms of the 24-bit digital output codes (twos complement coding) of the AD7760 vs. the voltage signals VA and VB applied to the on-board differential amplifier A1, as shown in Figure 52.

USING THE AD7760
The following is the recommended sequence for powering up and using the AD7760:
1. Apply power.
2. Start the clock oscillator, applying MCLK.
3. Take RESET low for a minimum of one MCLK cycle.
4. Wait a minimum of two MCLK cycles after RESET has been released.
5. Write to Control Register 2 to power up the ADC and the differential amplifier as required. The correct clock divider (CDIV) ratio should be programmed at this time.
6. Write to Control Register 1 to set the output data rate.
7. Wait a minimum of five MCLK cycles after CS has been released.
8. Take SYNC low for a minimum of four MCLK cycles, if required, to synchronize multiple parts.
Data can then be read from the part using the default filter, offset, gain, and overrange threshold values. The conversion data read is not valid, however, until the group delay of the filter has elapsed. Once this has occurred, the DVALID bit read with the data LSW is set, indicating that the data is indeed valid.
The user can then download a different filter if required (see the Downloading a User-Defined Filter section). Values for gain, offset, and overrange threshold registers can be written or read at this stage.

SUPPLY DECOUPLING
Every supply pin must be connected to the appropriate supply via a ferrite bead and decoupled to the correct ground pin with a 100 nF, 0603 case size, X7R dielectric capacitor. There are two exceptions to this:
Pin 12 (AVDD4) must have a 10 Ω resistor inserted between the pin and a 10 nF decoupling capacitor, which is connected to ground at Pin 9.
Pin 27 (AVDD2) does not require a separate decoupling capacitor or a direct connection to the supply, but instead is connected to Pin 14 via a 15 nH inductor.
ADDITIONAL DECOUPLING
There are two other decoupling pins on the AD7760—Pin 8 (DECAPA) and Pin 30 (DECAPB). Pin 8 should be decoupled with a 100 nF capacitor, and Pin 30 requires a 33 pF capacitor.
REFERENCE VOLTAGE FILTERING
A low noise reference source, such as the ADR431 (2.5 V) or ADR434 (4.096 V), is suitable for use with the AD7760. The reference voltage supplied to the AD7760 should be decoupled and filtered as shown in Figure 56.
The recommended scheme for the reference voltage supply is a 100 Ω series resistor connected to a 100 μF tantalum capacitor, followed by a series resistor of 10 Ω, and finally a 10 nF capacitor placed as close as possible to the VREF+ pin, decoupling this capacitor to the associated ground pin, Pin 11.

DIFFERENTIAL AMPLIFIER COMPONENTS
The correct components for use around the on-chip differential amplifier are detailed in Table 8. Matching the components on both sides of the differential amplifier is important to minimize distortion of the signal applied to the amplifier. A tolerance of 0.1% or better is required for these components. Symmetrical routing of the tracks on both sides of the differential amplifier also assists in achieving the stated performance.
BIAS RESISTOR SELECTION
The AD7760 requires a resistor to be connected between the RBIAS and AGND pins. The value of this resistor is dependent on the reference voltage being applied to the device. The resistor value should be selected to produce a current of 25 µA through the resistor to ground. For a 2.5 V reference voltage, the correct resistor value is 100 kΩ, and for a 4.096 V reference, the correct resistor value is 160 kΩ.
LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS
While using the correct components is essential to achieve optimum performance, the correct layout is just as important. The AD7760 product page on the Analog Devices website contains the Gerber files for the AD7760 evaluation board. These files should be used as a reference when designing any system using the AD7760.
The location and orientation of some of the components mentioned in previous sections of this data sheet are critical, and particular attention must be paid to the components that are located close to the AD7760. Locating these components farther away from the device can have a direct impact on the achievable maximum performance.
The use of ground planes should also be carefully considered. To ensure that the return currents through the decoupling capacitors are flowing to the correct ground pin, the ground side of the capacitors should be as close as possible to the ground pin associated with that supply. A ground plane should not be relied on as the sole return path for decoupling capacitors because the return current path using ground planes is not easily predictable.
EXPOSED PADDLE
The AD7760 64-lead TQFP employs a 6 mm × 6 mm exposed paddle (see Figure 59). The paddle reduces the thermal resistance of the package by providing a path for heat energy to flow between the package and the PCB and, in turn, increases the heat transfer efficiency from the AD7760 package. Connecting the exposed paddle to the AGND plane of the PCB is essential in creating the conditions that allow the AD7760 package to perform to the highest specifications possible. The exposed paddle should not be connected directly to any of the ground pins on the AD7760 and should only be connected to the analog ground plane. Best practice is to use multiple vias connecting the exposed paddle to the AGND plane of the PCB.

PROGRAMMABLE FIR FILTER As previously mentioned, the third FIR filter on the AD7760 is user programmable. The default coefficients that are loaded upon reset are given in Table 10, and the frequency responses are shown in Figure 57. The frequencies quoted in Figure 57 scale directly with the output data rate.

The default filter should be sufficient for most applications. It is a standard brick wall filter with a symmetrical impulse response. The default filter has a length of 96, is nonaliasing, and provides 120 dB of attenuation at Nyquist. This filter not only performs signal antialiasing, but also suppresses out-of-band quantization noise produced by the analog-to-digital conversion process. Any significant relaxation in the stop-band attenuation or transition bandwidth relative to the default filter can result in a failure to meet the SNR specifications.
The default filter characteristics scale with both the MCLK frequency applied and the decimation rate chosen by the user.
To create a filter, note the following:
The filter must be an even, symmetrical FIR.
The coefficients are in sign-and-magnitude format, with 26 magnitude bits and sign coded as positive = 0.
The filter length must be between 12 taps and 96 taps in steps of 12.
Because the filter is symmetrical, the number of coefficients that must be downloaded is half the filter length. The default filter coefficients exemplify this with only 48 coefficients listed for a 96-tap filter.
Coefficients are written from the center of the impulse response (adjacent to the point of symmetry) outwards.
The coefficients are scaled so that the in-band gain of the filter is equal to 134,217,726, with the coefficients rounded to the nearest integer. For a low-pass filter, this is the equivalent of having the coefficients summed arithmetically (including sign) to a +67,108,863 (0x3FF FFFF) positive value over the half-impulse-response coefficient set (a maximum of 48 coefficients). Any deviation from this introduces a gain error.

The procedure for downloading a user-defined filter is detailed in the Downloading a User-Defined Filter section.
AD7760
Rev. A | Page 31 of 36
DOWNLOADING A USER-DEFINED FILTER As previously mentioned, the filter coefficients are 27 bits in length—one sign and 26 magnitude bits. Because the AD7760 has a 16-bit parallel bus, the coefficients are padded with 5 MSB 0s to generate a 32-bit word, split into two 16-bit words for downloading. The first 16-bit word for each coefficient becomes (00000, sign bit, Magnitude [25:16]), whereas the second word becomes (Magnitude [15:0]). To ensure that a filter is downloaded correctly, a checksum must also be generated and then downloaded following the final coefficient. The checksum is a 16-bit word generated by splitting each 32-bit word into four bytes and summing the bytes from all coefficients up to a maximum of 192 bytes (48 coefficients × four bytes). The same checksum is generated internally in the AD7760 and compared with the downloaded checksum. The DL_OK bit in the status register is set if these two checksums agree.
To download a user filter
1. Write to Control Register 1, setting the DL_FILT bit and the correct filter length bits corresponding to the length of the filter to be downloaded (see Table 11).
2. Write the first half of the current coefficient data (00000, sign bit, Magnitude [25:16]). The first coefficient to be written must be the one adjacent to the point of filter symmetry.
3. Write the second half of the current coefficient data (Magnitude [15:0]).
4. Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 for each coefficient.
5. Write the 16-bit checksum.
6. Use the following methods to verify that the filter coefficients are downloaded correctly:
a. Read the status register, checking the DL_OK bit.
b. Read data and observe the status of the DL_OK bit.
Note that because the user coefficients are stored in RAM, they are cleared after a RESET operation or a loss of power.

AD7760 REGISTERS The AD7760 has a number of user-programmable registers. The control registers are used to set the decimation rate, the filter configuration, the clock divider, and so on. There are also digital gain, offset, and overrange threshold registers. Writing to these registers involves writing the register address first, then a 16-bit data-word. Register addresses, details of individual bits, and default values are given in this section.

4 BYP F3 Bypass Filter 3. If this bit is 0, Filter 3 (programmable FIR) is bypassed.

2 to 0 DEC [2:0] Decimation Rate. These bits set the decimation rate of Filter 2. All 0s implies that the filter is bypassed. A value of 1 corresponds to 2× decimation, a value of 2 corresponds to 4× decimation, and so on, up to the maximum value of 5, corresponding to 32× decimation.
1 Bit 15 to Bit 9 are self-clearing bits. 2 Only one of the bits from Bit 14 to Bit 11 can be set in any write operation because it determines the contents of the next read operation.

OFFSET REGISTER—ADDRESS 0x0003
Non-bit-mapped, Default Value 0x0000
The offset register uses twos complement notation and is scaled such that 0x7FFF (maximum positive value) and 0x8000 (max-imum negative value) correspond to an offset of +0.78125% and −0.78125%, respectively. Offset correction is applied after any gain correction. Using the default gain value of 1.25 and assuming a reference voltage of 4.096 V, the offset correction range is approximately ±25 mV.
GAIN REGISTER—ADDRESS 0x0004
Non-bit-mapped, Default Value 0xA000
The gain register is scaled such that 0x8000 corresponds to a gain of 1.0. The default value of this register is 1.25 (0xA000). This results in a full-scale digital output when the input is at 80% of VREF, tying in with the maximum analog input range of ±80% of VREF p-p.
OVERRANGE REGISTER—ADDRESS 0x0005
Non-bit-mapped, Default Value 0xCCCC
The overrange register value is compared with the output of the first decimation filter to obtain an overload indication with minimum propagation delay. This is prior to any gain scaling or offset adjustment. The default value is 0xCCCC, which corresponds to 80% of VREF (the maximum permitted analog input voltage). Assuming VREF = 4.096 V, the bit is then set when the input voltage exceeds approximately 6.55 V p-p differential. Once the overrange bit is set, the DVALID bit in the status bits of the AD7760 ouptut is set to zero, providing another indication that an input overrange has occurred. Note that the overrange bit is set immediately if the analog input voltage exceeds 100% of VREF for more than four consecutive samples at the modulator rate.
